Brent, I cannot give you a technical answer to all of your questions, but here are some general ideas about them: Commodore's new resolutions will give you flicker-free displays, but not with all of the Amiga colors. If you want to continue to use all the current options as to number of bitplanes, etc., you can do that with the flickerfixer. The new resolutions from Commodore will be very limited in the number of colors. The flickerFixer really does look great, and with any multisync monitor to which I have seen it attached. It is wonderful with the Zenith flat-screen (though that is not multisync), but it is also great with others such as the DiamondScan, the NEC Multisync, the less expensive Princeton Graphics Ultrasync which I use, and with others. The flickerfixer can work with more than one frequency, so it can work with the VGA monitors, but it is my understanding that the new Commodore resolutions will still not be at the VGA frequencies; thus you could only use those monitors with the flickerfixer, even after 1.4 arrives. The smaller the dot pitch, the finer the resolution of the screen. I believe mine has either .26 or .28, though the .31 is more common. Look in Computer Shopper for prices. Multisync monitors can be purchased from about $400 up, if you shop well. Betty
